Managing Food Waste

According to the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), Californians throw away nearly 12 billion pounds of food each year, wasting precious land, water, energy, and human resources. This contributes to about 18 percent of all the material that goes to our landfills. While many people may not think much of tossing food in the trash, consumers are responsible for more wasted food than farms, grocery stores, or restaurants. In the U.S., up to 40 percent of our food ends up in landfills. This translates to a loss of $218 billion for costs of food to consumers and retailers, as well as wasted water, energy, fertilizer, cropland, production, and transportation. For more information on these startling statistics, please visit the National Resources Defense Council Wasted: How America is Losing Up to 40 Percent of Its Food Web page at https://www.nrdc.org/resources/wasted-how-america-losing-40-percent-its-food-farm-fork-landfill.Reducing food waste requires action by partners throughout the food system, including CNPs. For example, there are many strategies you can adopt to reduce waste, ranging from kid-friendly taste testing, nutrition education, to offering share tables (work with your local health department to implement safe practices for food sharing). For strategies on how you can reduce food waste, please visit the CDE Plate Waste Prevention in CNPs Web page at https://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/nu/sn/platewaste.asp.

Incorporating simple food waste prevention actions, such as donating leftovers, can immediately help reduce food waste in your own CNPs. For guidance on donating foods, refer to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Policy Memo SP 11-2012 Guidance on the Food Donation Program in CNPs on the USDA Guidance on the Food Donation Program in CNPs Web page at https://www.fns.usda.gov/cacfp-05-2012-guidance-food-donation-program-child-nutrition-programs. Revised CDE management bulletins on these topics are forthcoming.
